why should a middle class person whos parent were wealthy enough to pay for their college education get $1000 / hour? Your opinion is exactly what the powers that be want you to say, that is the problem right there and as long as people like you believe that it will perpetuate.
What makes a dropout, in your opinion?
I dont want to sound to right wing on this but ill say my opinion regardless...
Believe me I dont like the rich. I think it sucks that billionaires can pass their wealth to their son Joe even though Joe was a drop out and never had much brains/skills to begin with. While this is happening a hard working person with a university degree is potentially left unemployed.
A dropout im thinking a high school (American high school) dropout. In some instance a post secondary dropout.
Demand one: Restoration of the living wage. This demand can only be met by ending "Freetrade" by re-imposing trade tariffs on all imported goods entering the American market to level the playing field for domestic family farming and domestic manufacturing as most nations that are dumping cheap products onto the American market have radical wage and environmental regulation advantages. Another policy that must be instituted is raise the minimum wage to twenty dollars an hr.
Demand two: Institute a universal single payer healthcare system. To do this all private insurers must be banned from the healthcare market as their only effect on the health of patients is to take money away from doctors, nurses and hospitals preventing them from doing their jobs and hand that money to wall st. investors.
Demand three: Guaranteed living wage income regardless of employment.
Demand four: Free college education.
Demand five: Begin a fast track process to bring the fossil fuel economy to an end while at the same bringing the alternative energy economy up to energy demand.
Demand six: One trillion dollars in infrastructure (Water, Sewer, Rail, Roads and Bridges and Electrical Grid) spending now.
Demand seven: One trillion dollars in ecological restoration planting forests, reestablishing wetlands and the natural flow of river systems and decommissioning of all of America's nuclear power plants.
Demand eight: Racial and gender equal rights amendment.
Demand nine: Open borders migration. anyone can travel anywhere to work and live.
Demand ten: Bring American elections up to international standards of a paper ballot precinct counted and recounted in front of an independent and party observers system.
Demand eleven: Immediate across the board debt forgiveness for all. Debt forgiveness of sovereign debt, commercial loans, home mortgages, home equity loans, credit card debt, student loans and personal loans now! All debt must be stricken from the "Books." World Bank Loans to all Nations, Bank to Bank Debt and all Bonds and Margin Call Debt in the stock market including all Derivatives or Credit Default Swaps, all 65 trillion dollars of them must also be stricken from the "Books." And I don't mean debt that is in default, I mean all debt on the entire planet period.
Demand twelve: Outlaw all credit reporting agencies.
Demand thirteen: Allow all workers to sign a ballot at any time during a union organizing campaign or at any time that represents their yeah or nay to having a union represent them in collective bargaining or to form a union.
Demand number 9 is ridiculous. America should be closing its borders especially with the illegal immigrants coming from Mexico and elsewhere.
Demands 6 and 7 sound nice but WHERE is the money gonna come from? US economy is garbage and I think the Fed should be erased from history.
Demand 4 sounds un-American to some Americans (im Canadian so im just guessing). Personally I think "FREE" education is nice but in a large country like USA its a lot harder than it sounds. Americans dont like taxes and taxes would go up should a "free" education happen. The rich in particular want their money to mean something and they dont want any person to just get college education. Many people arent smart enough for college and dont want to go. While I support having more educated civilization tax payers would be paying for some people who dont take education seriously.
Demand 3 ive already touched on.
Demand 2 I support but in a place like USA there is tens of millions of people who oppose this and not just the rich. Socialized Health Care is nice but waiting times are at times bad.
